WEST DES MOINES, IOWA — In our interview, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich discussed what kind of First Lady his wife Calista might be.
Gingrich is quoted in the new e-book “THE RIGHT FIGHTS BACK,” by Mike Allen and Evan Thomas, saying she would be in the Nancy Reagan mold. So that’s where we started.
What did he mean by that? I asked.
“First of all she is a very strong personality, which Nancy Reagan was,” Gingrich said. “She actually describes herself as being a cross between Nancy Reagan and Laura Bush with just a slight bit of Jackie Kennedy tossed in and I think there is, somewhere swirling in there, the model Calista would like to live up to.”

Not only is it a line of credit, it’s his own money. No taxpayer was affected in this instance. It’s hypocritical of the left to be ticked off about this, while at the same time brimming with glee when the Obama’s whisk off to some million dollar junket every other week, on the taxpayer’s dime.
you are so going to get flamed - No sanity allowed in this thread.
Anyone in this race is viable. Obama is beatable. If people vote for four more years of Obama by staying home, they deserve to live in misery.
you opine: “but Gingrich is toxic to the Mushy Middle, so he has little chance of winning the requisite plurality of the “independent” vote.”
You know or you hope?
Of course you may have better inside information than this report?

“polling is showing a “mass exodus of independents from Romney.” He said the independents are mostly tea party members of the GOP and they are moving very rapidly toward Gingrich.
Gingrich is also picking up the voters who are abandoning businessman Herman Cain
She is vile! Newt deserves her.
Per an ex-Gingrich aid which you chose not to post. Nothing in this article rings true!
Rasmussen did a poll the other day (reported on FNC and now behind a paywall) and they asked the question who respondents would support if Cain dropped out and the results showed that Newt moved up by the same percentage points that Cain now has in Rasmussen's polling with Cain in the race, which means that all of Cain's supporters who were surveyed would support Newt if Cain dropped out of the race.
It does appear someone may be on SOMEthing, but I don't think it's MHGinTN
BYW "Try again and try this time."
Talk about 'zero sense'.
you ‘snark’ “Hilariously, some people here on FR made fun of Michelle Obama when she wore a pair of $200 sandals.”
(her sneaker cost over 3 x’s that) - but she does like the diamonds too
“Michelle Obama Wears $42K Diamond Bracelets to DNC Fundraiser “
This is flat wrong. Where did you find such a fact?
Read the rest of my post.
I read it. Please provide the link to your paraphrased information.
I can’t because it’s behind a login paywall. I just googled a half hour ago, hoping I could link to it, but I didn’t bother.
well, I’m outta here - the crazies are out in force tonight. Seems like FR has had a mass invasion of them, of late.
Where did our Viking Kitties go?
Good night. I’m moving along to other threads.
> “polling is showing a “mass exodus of independents from Romney.”
The “independents” I’m talking about are the ones that voted for 0bamarx in 2008. I believe that few of them would see Gingrich as a better alternative. Gingrich has been thoroughly demonized by the press.
Besides, Gingrich has stabbed conservatives in the back before. He will do it again.
No stranger to the bleach bottle here myself but woah, now that head of hair is blinding.
